In 1939-1940 it would be very effective vs Soviet tanks of the time as most had around 20-30mm armor. But by 1941-1942 heavier armored tanks like KV1 and even the T-34, this would be much less effective and shots would have to be aimed at weak points such as tracks and wheels. I would suspect...
Noticed the waterfront property for sale sign and first thought was 3 years from now some guy with too much money is going to completely trash his $200K boat on a piece of that they forget to get out.
I agree completely with what a few have posted so far. There is very little need to buy a new computer today. I've been building my own systems for probably as long as some people reading this have been alive. Long gone are the days where an upgrade to your computer got you a real world boost...
I moved from TX a few years ago and all this controversy sadly informed me of the passing of Leslie.
As for the issue itself - doesn't bother me at all, it employs and empowers those that need it while performing a service the rest can use - just like any other job.
Those of us who are past their teens/early twenties say it with a j because that is what the creators of the extension called it, and that is what was taught in school. The young'ins use the hard g, but then again they also use words like phat, haxorz, 1337, and noob.... so they automatically...
We need a good old Best Buy review... All the crap they sell should prove very very entertaining. And please film the explosions when the 400w Dynex craps out at 150w load.
No everyone in town has seen the video by now and we are all laughing about it, Reading is not a huge city that it doesn't take long for word to get around.
That's completely untrue, there are more console torrents than PC games it's been that way for a while now. In fact it's much easier to pirate console games than it is a PC game. With a computer, you need to crack/bypass each game individually. On the console side, you just purchase a modded...
I kind of miss that case. Mine got hand-me-down'd to my mother after I could no longer stand visiting and using the 500mhz Gateway from hell.
As for the new one.. .meh... I like the flexibility, but it's ugly as hell.
I have to agree with those above. I just recently went shopping for a new headset and the choice came down to these or a G35. Took the Logitech because the colors and branding turned me off.
Not sure if this has been brought up before, but has anyone tried 2/1/2 set up with the center montior in a verticle position... is it even possible? Might be a way to get the best of both worlds if it would work.
What they need to do is separate laptops from desktops. Looking quickly through the driver listings at least 20% of the survey are laptops. The numbers start making more sense when you figure at minimum 1/5 - 1/4 are laptops.
Just a note for those running older video cards looking to 'upgrade' w/20-22 inch display. I just benched the same area (multiple run throughs) on a 4870 and 720BE tri core and out performed all cards listed in the review at that resolution. Taking the lowest fps of each of my runs I hit a min...
For Borderlands you might want to check out this section of WillowEngine.ini file:
[Engine.GameEngine]
bSmoothFrameRate=TRUE
MinSmoothedFrameRate=22
MaxSmoothedFrameRate=62
I changed the true to false and almost doubled my frame rate. BTW, playing on a 4870 and the new drivers...
Had the 100:1, the Casio, and numerous Erector sets. Great thing was when I got older and stopped 'playing' with the Erector sets and 100:1, they became spare parts for whatever I was working on. I can't tell you how many times I rigged up my old Chevy with pieces from the Erector set (the...
Do what I did, use their display computers to look up the prices at the other stores. The employees at my local CC could care less and I found a savings of $40 on a 22" LCD over Best Buy's prices.
Kyle,
If you continue with tests of the i7 could you do some overclocked comparisons (max stable overclock) between it and Penryn based CPUs. I'd like to see if there is any real world performance to be gained with the new proc compared to processors that can easily go over 4GHz.
Thanks.
Provided that you are connected to the internet and the 'phone home' revoke makes it back to the servers. If not, there goes one activation.
Unless of course if that the upgrade is due to hardware failure, in which case there goes another activation. Oh, and you better hope Windows stays...
Pulled a little info off Metacritic:
Game reviews that are favorable (75 score or better)
PS2 - 528/1562 - 33.8%
PS3 - 85/190 - 44.7%
XBox - 339/856 - 39.6%
Xbox 360 - 170/433 - 39.2%
PC - 747/1823 - 40.9%
But just getting favorable average reviews does not mean the game will sell...
One huge difference between the two offerings I would like to see explored is the discrete graphics option available with the Via motherboard. More specifically:
What video cards could be supported?
Quality of video play back with a GPU handling the work load.
Power usage when using a...
